Guys, calm down!

BAI, I am absolutely still not worried about getting into Columbia. There is virtually a 100% chance that both of us are getting in, and your masters will only be an asset to your application.

Well, technically it's a non-master's! :lol: But I can see how even that might be a small asset, in that it gives me a fun background and stuff. I am going to take your caps as a stern voice, which is totally warranted and which I will attempt to respect. :P

haha, spoken like a true 180. don't worry, bai, we're getting in, i know it!
Hah, that I am going to take as an awesome compliment and further admonition against panicking.

Stop panicking, everyone! Putting me at the top of the panic chain was not TCR, but I'm sane for now!

the weight of the responsibility of other people panicking dependent on your should motivate you to stay calm

Somebody tell me if abroad applicants have been getting their acceptances on the same days that waves have been sent out, or a few days later. Are these email admittances part of the February 4th wave or a later one?

Awesome, thanks. Just trying to see what the latest complete date for this batch is (so far, it appears to be 1/20, so no worrying for me until next week).

From the last (I think? first RD, maybe?) wave: package was postmarked 1/22; I got the email on 1/25.

That's right, though I think the delay for us may have been cos 22nd was a Friday. So they might just have postponed sending the e-mail to the following Monday (maybe it got late or something).

Last year I know that e-mails were sent on the same day that packages were, and as a result those based abroad got to know a little before domestic applicants did.

Yup. Not nearly as long as yours, though... complete 12/7, nothing since.
